any info. on delhezi and weeksi?
are they compatible with fire and tire track eels, and ornate chaca chaca catfish, and 3needle nose gars?(small gars that are legal in CA)

i heard that the bichir can eat the eel and gars but is this true?
and someone told me that the chaca will not have food since it will not move around so i will put the food right infront of it's mouth so no other fish takes it away.
would the bichirs go at the chaca? since i thought the chaca had spines and needles on it's body so wouldn't it be safe from hungry bichirs?

approximate size at purchase:
delhezi: 3" to 5"
weeksi: 3" to 5"
fire eel: 4" to 6"
tire track: 3" to 6"
chaca catfish: 3"
needle nose gars: 3" to 4-1/2"

i will buy them from live aquaria and aquascape online; is this a safe place to buy fish?

any info. on south american blunt nose gars?
where can i get one online?
which would you preffer needle nose or blunt nose?
which are bigger?
 
chaca chacas pretty much need their own tank. they may not eat even if you put it right in front of them, they usually only eat at night. they need live and if there is anything in the tank that will eat their food they probably wont get much, if any. also remember that chaca chacas can eat something up to their own size.
